Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee Solo Albums To Be Reissued

RUSH members Alex Lifeson and Geddy Lee are each reissuing their debut solo albums. Lifeson’s 1996 effort, Victor, and Lee’s 2000 LP, My Favourite Headache, will each arrive in various formats on August 9th via Rhino Records and Anthem Records.

Lifeson’s Victor will be released on vinyl for the first time ever, in Ruby Translucent 2LP (Rush Backstage Exclusive, limited to 1,000 units); Blue Translucent 2LP (exclusive to Canada, limited to 1,000 units); Crystal Clear Translucent 2LP (exclusive to U.S. & ROW); and Standard Black; as well as on CD. Pre-orders are available here.

It’s been remixed by Lifeson himself and contains four instrumental tracks that were previously only available on the guitarist’s website. Among the contributing artists to the original album are lead vocalist Edwin from I Mother Earth, Primus bassist Les Claypool, and Canadian vocalist Lisa Dalbello.

Lee’s My Favourite Headache is the singer-bassist’s only solo album to date. The fourth side of the 2LP set features two instrumental mixes. It is available for pre-order on Blue/Green Galaxy 2LP (exclusive to Canada/Anthem); Green & Blue 2LP (exclusive to U.S. & ROW/Rhino); and on CD.

The original album features contributions from drummers Matt Cameron (Soundgarden/Pearl Jam) and Jeremy Taggart (Our Lady Peace), as well as Ben Mink (who co-produced the effort with Lee and David Leonard).

Last year, Lifeson unveiled a new Epiphone Les Paul Custom Axcess Ruby guitar, which is available here.
